LETTER FROM o,BR1EN
Denying the Recent Statements Ma
. hY Ralfnnr.

Denying the Recent Statements Made
by Balfour.
LONDON, Dec. MIR. O'Brien in a letter
struggled from Tullamore Jail says: The
substance of Mr.. Balfour's letter has been
conveyed to me. Mr.. Balfours statement
that I pleaded weak action of the heart
and delicate condition of the lungs
as an excuse for not being forced
to wear criminal clothes is a cruel fa1sehood.
I am not aware of such weakness and never
declared The medical examiners never re-
frrred to this, my only weakness being in my
left lung, which does not trouble
me at present If Mr. Balfour is
acting on the belief that the state of
my health renders the application of brute
force dangerous the couIae he has pursued
could not be recommended on the score of
humanity. For six days after committal
was subjected to threats of force and
put on diet of bread and
water. When this proved fruitless
I was led to believe the point would not be
insisted on. Thereupon my clothes were
stolen. Since securing new clothes I have
been unable to change them night or day for
fear of their being stolen. No official
| intimation has been given to relieve me
of this continued strain. This letter
| is the only means of vindicatipe
myself against Mr.. Balfour's foul and dis
| honoring imputations. Henceforth I shall
not speak of my health. do not take any
| nourishing food. Innthe face of into1erablt
| calumnies leave it to honorable men to
judge of Balfour's false and cruel insinua

AGITATION Mn IRELAND
Alleged by Catholic UniOnisfs to be
ahe Ruin of the Country.


ehe Ruin of the Country.
DUBLIN, Nov. 30.-The Unionist banquet
in Leinster Hall this evening was a brilliant
affair. The leading merchants and profes-
sional men and number of Catholic Union
lists were present. The balconies were
crowded with ladies. Lord Harrington and
Mr.. Goschen were given an ovation. The
toast to the Queen was received with enthu-
siasm, everybody rising and joining in the
singing of the national anthem and ffGod
Bless the Prince of Wales'' Mr. Kenney,
an eminent Catholic barrister, on proposing
a. toast to the Unionist cause, denounced
home rule as an insidious misnomer, simply
meHning the dismembermenr of the empire
and the utter ruin of Ireland. Agitation, he
said, had destroyed Irish trade and ruined
Irish credit, but there were hopeful symp-
toms that the people were beginning to find
out the resf tendencies of the agitators'
work. Mr.. Goschen, who responded, said
that the time for anybody being neutral to-
ward the separatists had passed Demon
strations showing that the most important
part of Ireland was against home rule would
help to convince England and the world that
the agitators' claim of representing Irish
sentiment was largely delusive.

Brother Chops HIS SISTERS Head
With an Axe and Then Takes Paris
Green.
HARTFORD Nov. 30.-The village of Ken
sington was thrown into fever of excitement
last night by the circulation of rumor that
George j. Durham had murdered his sister
with an axe. Investigation was at once made,
which revealed the fact that Durham had at
tempted to take his sisters life and suppoE-
ing he had dispatched her he took dose of
Paris green from his own hand.
The two blows from the axe had their eff
fects, one cutting off her left ear and the
other making deep cash in the head. DR..
Styles was Immediately summoned from
New Britain and dressed the lady's wounds.
Durham died early this morning. The
family lived in comfortable circumstances
about half a mile south of Berlin station, and
when not crazed with drink Durham had all
ways been considered a harmless person, al
though he had always led an indolent life.
He was about sixty years of age.

The rumors that were afoat Tuesday night
that White, CIarkson & Co. had made an as

Rev. DIR. Reed on PrairIes, Ranch and
Geysers.
At the Trinity Methodist church last even
ing Rev. George E. Reed lectured on Prairie,
Ranch and Geyser" before an audience which
taxed to the utmost the seating capacity of
the church. The lecture was one of unusual
interest, and the speaker was frequently ap-
plauded. The story of a trip across the
country from Minnesota to the Pacific coast
was graphically told and profusely illustrated
by excellent views of various scenes of life
among the ranchmen and Indians of the far
West, the wonderful geysers, petriied forests,
strange rock formations and the grand and
beautiful scenery of the great Yellowstone
Park, and the bleak and almost sterile Bad
| lands in Dakota. The entertainment closed
| with beautiful representation of s'The Rock
t1of Ages while the well known song was
rendered by quartette.
| The next number in the course will be
| given Monday evening, December s. The
well known elocutionist, Prof. r. 6. Hibbard,
will appear on that occasion, and his reputa-
ton IN his line will attract large audience.

A WORD ABOUT CATARRH.

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next to
and undoubtedly leads on to consumption. It is
therefore singular that those afflicted with this
fearful disease should not make 1t the object of
their livee to rid themselves Of it. Deceptive RENE
dies concocted by ignorant prstenders to medical
knowledge have weakened the confidence of the
great majority of sufferers in all advertised reme-
dies They become resigned to life of misery
rathar than torture themselves with doubtful palli
atives.
But this will never do. Catarrh must be met at
avery stage and combated with all our might In
MANY cases the disease has assumed dangerous
symptoms. The bones and cartilage of the nose,
the organs of hearing, of seeing and of tasting
SO affected to be useless the uvulva elongated
the throat SO inlamed and irritated as to produce
a constant and distressing cough.

There must have been joy in Hartford last
night when the home team after losing
every game it has played since the season be-
gan administered defeat to the Meridens.
The latter had fond hopes of winning this
game, but its loss sets them back so that
they are not now in the lead for the cham
pionship. The New Ravens and Meridens
are now tied for first place. The score last
night was to 1.
At Bridgeport the home team defeated the
Waterburys in close and exciting game.
The score: Bridgeport 2, Waterbury 1.
The Meriden papers speak very highly of
Watson's playing at half-back for the New
Ravens there on Tuesday night.
